I live in seattle and work downtown. GSM and GPRS coverage are very good for the US. I use T-Mobile, but Cingular and AT&T are also supposed to be good here. I have good coverage at good and work. Voicestream used to be based in Seattle, so they built a good network here. Hope this helps.

Also, I have never experienced a dropped call... Yet. I have been pleased with T-Mobile and their customer service. Also, I get signal in smaller areas like Port Angeles and Sequim.

Jh67,
There are several authorized dealers in the Bellevue area. The closest company owned location to Bellevue is the Redmond store where I work. While prepaid is a good choice, you may still want to consider postpaid service based on cost and features. Since you are providing your own phone, you can sign up for a cingular account with no contract. The benefits of that include much cheaper rates, availability of data services, and the ability to roam on other providers. Prepaid will work in Nevada with Cingular, but you will not be able to roam on ATT in the Seattle area with the agreement Cingular has unless you are using postpaid. Since you have your own phone the you would not need to pay anything to set up your post paid service except the $36.00 activation fee that comes on the first bill. Like I said in a previous post, feel free to email me with any questions. Hope this helps.

no Euro bands work here. U.S. phones are 850/1900, Euro are 900/1800. Sad, but true

Do people still buy dual band phones? Most phones nowadays are tri-band (900/1800/1900 or 850/1800/1900).
